I'm kind of an optimist by nature. I don't really like to dwell in negativity. However...

My gut is telling me that four or five years from now, we'll look back at the events of the past few days as the point in time where things took a dramatic turn for the worse.

I think the Lindholm deal carries a significant amount of risk.

I hated taking back Korpisalo in the Ullmark trade.

I detest the Zadorov deal.

For a long time, I thought that Don Sweeney's best attribute has been his cap management. And in the last 96 hourse, he's added three long-term, high risk deals to his books.

There may be a short-term bump, but I don't see Lindholm, Zadorov, and Korpisalo as the key pieces to push the Bruins over the top. Not even close. I think there's a real chance they've spent a ton of money without making themselves dramatically better.
cap will be going up over next few years, I`m not worried one bit about either deal

When leternaeu becomes tage lite and elias gets 80 points with pasta and zadorov clears everyone from net you will apologize .
